Anytime you have to hire someone from outside of your organization it is a risk. There’s just no substitute for knowing someone’s character & competence first hand. As a leader if I don’t know the individual personally, the next best thing is to have someone I know and trust who does know them. And there is nobody I trust more in evaluating and developing leaders than the folks at LEAD222!

93% of every person who puts their faith in Jesus, does so before the age of 18.  That’s why Student Ministry must be done successfully.  However, great leaders are the hope of great Student Ministries.  Finding and equipping great Student Ministries is extraordinarily hard.  That’s why I love LEAD222.  They have a proven track record in identifying and equipping healthy leaders.  If you’re looking to hire a new leader, or want your current Student Ministry Leader to be better equipped, LEAD222 is the organization that can help you.  There’s too much at stake when it comes to students.  LEAD222 knows that, and can help you become a church where students are reached for Jesus, and transformed by Jesus.

In our current culture of church growth, development and staffing it is necessary to have an experienced voice helping us as Lead Pastors to navigate the ever-changing world of youth ministry. I can think of no better organization than Lead 222 for insight and best practices in this area. I have personally accessed them for staffing, direction and will continue to use them in the future.
